My Trace V6 sounds great through an SWR Goliath Jr. II, but if you want to be LOUD you will want more speaker surface area to move more air! Lately, my problem has been being too loud for the nice folks at the country club; hence, I use the 2x10 cabinet instead of Henry the 8x8. -Wes

Well I don't know how loud your band is but I just used a single Vl210 Saturday night. I powered it with a PLX 1602. and my pre-amp never went past 4 or 5 and that was plenty to cut through guitar, drums, keys, sax and trombone. The SPL of my VL's is 100. The SPL of the CXL 112's is 103. So that's twice as loud.

Originally posted by BassGreaser I'm in a ska/rock band with drummer, guitar, sax,trumpet, and trumbone, and two singers. We're not as loud as some rock bands..I think I'm going to go two EA CxL-112s

That's probably a really good idea. Make sure you get the newer light weight 112's. I think they're around 40 lbs now. They're also alot less expensive than my Vl's were. Let us know how you like them when you get them

The CXL's are going to have a flatter responce that the aggies. The aggeis have a thicker tone IMO the the CXL's do. The aggies arn't quite as loud (1 DB) no big deal. The aggies are much less expensive. But I like the flat high fi EA tone myself. Try them both if you can
